Windowmaker problems...

Hey folks,

I just installed MDK 8.2 with Windowmaker and I get a segmentation fault whenever I try to run it. I am running a dual head machine (matrox g450). The only reason I say this is because I also installed MDK on my laptop and Windowmaker works fine.

Could the X server be incompatible with WM when hardware accel and dual head is on?

Re: Windowmaker problems...

So I was able to fix my problem. Seems that windowmaker does not like the dual monitor mode I was in. I had X set up to have 2 separate desktops, instead of just one big fat one. Setting X to the latter of the two fixed everyything.
